Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

The parseCurrency() expects the 1st parameter to be a float, when given
a string 
PHP automatically casts it to float resulting in 0.

Hi! :)

I think i have found a bug in NumberFormatter.
parseCurrency() returns 0 instead of false in the following test
script.

Same Problem with parse().

Test script:
---------------
$fmt=new NumberFormatter('de_DE',NumberFormatter::CURRENCY);

$result=$fmt->parseCurrency('aaa',$currency);
//$result=$fmt->parse('aaa');

// results:
var_dump($result);   // float(0)
var_dump($currency); // string(0) "" 

// no errors!!
var_dump($fmt->getErrorCode());                  // int(0)
var_dump($fmt->getErrorMessage());               // string(12)
"U_ZERO_ERROR" 
var_dump(intl_is_failure($fmt->getErrorCode())); // bool(false)
